Hello there Hambo friends, and welcome to the fantastic "Ham and Bacon" blog hop, I just love hambo's blog hops, and this one is all about Kevin Bacon....get it!!! Bacon!! (nice one Lyn) lol. Anyway, the thing is that you have to use any Hambo Stamps image to depict any Kevin Bacon Movie!! and wow!! are there a few to choose from, so I cannot wait to see what movie everyone else has chosen. I had lots of ideas, even...can you believe it....The Hollow Man!!!! but it was too complicated to do!!!(him being invisible and all) ...btw...that looks a great movie, am gonna have to watch that sometime. Soooooo I finally chose to depict..... Apollo 13.....an American historical docudrama starring Tom hanks, Bill Paxton, Gary Sinise, Ed Harris, and of course Kevin Bacon, a 1995 film that dramatizes the aborted Apollo 13 lunar mission, en route, an on board explosion deprives their spacecraft of most of its oxygen supply, forcing NASA's flight controllers to abort the moon landing and turning the mission into a struggle to get the three men home safely. So here is my card......
I have used 3 separate images for my Pop Up Box Card.. the astronaut and saturn are from the
SPACE BOY SET, the moon is the
MOONSCAPE digi image, and the earth is taken from the
GLOBE rubber stamp. I loved doing this project, and can you believe it, It folds flat, so is great for mailing!!!! the images appear suspended, but are actually on acetate strips glues to spaced bars at the top of the box, which is surprisingly easy to make.
Hambo Stamps will be giving away a $15 digi shopping spree to one randomly drawn hopper who leaves a comment at each post along the way, also there will be a "Best In Show" prize!!!, the deadline for commenting is Monday April 14th at 10.00 pm EDT, the winners will be revealed on the hoedown Blog on Wed, April 16th, so why don't you leave me a bit of love, then hop on over to
- http://heyheypaula-heyheypaula.blogspot.com/blog and see which Kevin Bacon movie she has chosen!!
WHOAH!
ReplyDeleteThis is sooo cool! I have been meaning to try one of theses boxes!!
I cannot think of a better scene to use with one!
Beautiful coloring! AMAZING design!!!!!!
Well good grief! As usual, your project is AMAZING, Jane!! Is there anything you cannot make? I love your use of all of the different images to create "space" ... complete with a real space-walker! I am SO glad I didn't choose Apollo 13 now. LOL
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA!! We are too funny - I made the same kind of project and gave you a shout out too! This is freaking awesome and I now appreciate all the cutting you do - that is insane! Each little piece is perfectly colored and place - you are out of this world!

This is just wonderful, Jane! An awesome creation for a really great Kevin Bacon film! This was one of my son's favorites and we watched it MANY times!
ReplyDeleteJane this is awesome, love your idea for Apollo 13, so perfect!! And I have to tell you - I saw The Hollow Man years ago and it was AWFUL!! Normally I love Kevin Bacon - but that one - not so much. :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat job on this fun card style! I love the thoughtful details you added!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome box card! I'm seeing these everywhere these days so I guess I'll have to try making one. Yours is just perfect!
ReplyDeletePeace & Luv,

What a great idea to use the box card for this! I bet it's great in person with some wiggling from the acetate strips. It's always a treat to see what you come up with...and it's always awesome.
ReplyDeleteYour pop up box card is awesome!! I haven't tried it yet, so your card has inspired me to try something new (and to yank out the VCR to watch this awesome movie again. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat card!!! Love the acetate addition to make them seem to float. I have used this tecky and love it.
ReplyDeleteAs always, you're card rocks! Perfect images & I love the patterned paper. I've been wanting to try a box card, but haven't yet. You've inspired me to give it a try.
